possible ex-poet;

Another all nighter
pull out binders from under the bed
figure out where the magic happened
and why I'm dull instead
how years have passed
and my one passion is disappearing
time can't--won't steal this away from me
the flame will keep reappearing

lines merge into a form
forms I can never escape
and every page that's turned
I am filled with hate
hate that I'm not as good
as I once used to be
and one day I'll just give up
all the words go free

My pen is shaking in my hand
for once I don't know what to write
I just can't understand...
I'm stuck in an internal word fight
what went wrong?
when did I slip away?

I used to hide in my words
but I haven't written a good one in days.

Author notes

It's not there anymore...

the one thing that always saved me, i feel like it's in the process of change and I can't stop it.

I'm scared I'll lose my gift, the one I've had ever since I could write and so that's why I haven't been writing so much as of late.

Shit...

In a list
